Blood Transfusion Services : -

All the infectious diseases are tested in our blood bank with the State of The Art Fully Automated System Vitros ECi from M/s Ortho Clinical Diagnostics based upon Enhanced Chemiluminescence Technology.

Your blood is processed into Blood Components on Optipress II from M/s Baxter Inc., USA. This system is used to prepare Leucoreduced Blood products so that there is minimal chance of allergic reactions to the patients receiving the blood transfusion.
Blood is separated into three Components i.e., Red Blood Cells Concentrate, Platelet Concentrate and Plasma. Different patients get different Blood Components according to their specific requirements. This optimizes the use of blood and also effectively benefits the patients.

With the advent of Cell Separators (Amicus from M/s Baxter Inc USA), we can draw a particular component from the donor directly and rest of the constituents goes back to the donor. Such a facility exists in our Blood Bank. Through this latest Technology you can donate your platelets or plasma every 48 hours (24 times in a year).

The speed and accuracy enables a quick and reassuring clearance, or treatment prescribed speedily that can often be life-saving.

Angiography the non-invasive way with the world's fastest CT scanning.

Instruction for 64 Slice MDCT coronary Angiography : -

Patient to come with prior appointment.

Patients above the age of the 50 yrs are recommended to have BUN and serum creatinine checked.

On day of examination : -

Nil orally for 4 hours (no tea or coffee)

To carry all recent reports (ECG, 2 D echocardiography, TMT)

To take 50 mg of Beta-blocker after consultation with cardiologist /radiologist to reduce the heart rate at the time of scan.

Patients having known allergies to contrast media/ other drugs should inform the radiologist before the scan.

What is CT coronary angiogram ?

A simple non invasive method to evaluate the status of the coronary vessels that supply the heart by ultra fast 64 slice per rotation Multislice CT scanner. The state of the art 64 -Slice achieves a true volumetric, 3-dimensional scanning of the heart in only 5 heartbeats- providing, almost instantaneously, unprecedented image quality.

Use of Beta Blockers a premedication : -

Pulse, BP is evaluated and oral metaprolol (50 mg or 100 mg) is given 1hour prior to the time of appointment.

It the heart rate does not fall below 65, an additional oral dose of 25 mg to 50 mg is given and provided his BP is not compromised. Optimal heart rate is around 65 bpm.

Scan can be performed on higher heart rate only if it is regular and there is no beat- to beat variation.

How is CT coronary angiogram done ?

The patient is put comfortable on a CT scanner table and a baseline calcium score is calculated in a few seconds. Following this contrast is injected in one of the peripheral veins with online ECG monitoring .The images required for a CT coronary angiogram are obtained in one single breath hold within 5 second. Subsequently processed, peformatted, analyzed and evaluated on a workstation. The inferences proved the radiologist an accurate picture of the heart and the coronary vessels that supply it. They are evaluated for narrowing, blockage, presence of different varieties of plaque (stable/ unstable). The status of the various chambers of the heart, cardiac muscles, and the main vessels carrying to and from the heart can also be easily seen. It is an excellent investigation to evaluate post-operative grafts , stents, and to exclude non-cardiac causes of chest pain.

Who should undergo a CT coronary angiography ?

All patient with high risk factors are potential candidates

Those who have cardiac risk factors such as high blood pressure ,diabetes and smoking.

Those with suspected heart disease, due to abnormality in non -invasive testing such as TMT.

Those who have undergone by-pass surgery and require a post -operative evaluation of their heart condition.

Patient having a strong family history of heart disease, diabetics, heavy smokers, high blood obesity, high cholesterol/ triglycerides, alcoholics and those in high stress and tension jobs.

Radiology Department - Managed by Mahajan Imaging Center : -

The biggest recent technological leap in imaging and arguably, the most phenomenal preventive heart check is now close by, in the department of radiology & imaging, at Fortis Healthcare fl. Lt. Rajan Dhall Hospital. It comes with the most reassuring news for those who are apprehensive about undergoing conventional Angiography. At Fortis Healthcare, all the latest imaging facilities are available with state of the art technology, patient care and professional expertise.
